Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03083734A2] A computer network is managed by policies. This allows selections to be made from a range of control options and optionally to be based on locally available system information. Policy-based management is distributed across the system and is handled locally by management agents (70) allowing control of a sub-network (72). As a result a distributed policy-based management system is provided which allows additional flexibility of control.
